Heartbroken looser in love Olly joins the French Foreign Legion to forget, and of course he drags along Stan who forgets everything. One of the funniest L&H feature-length comedies with great slapstick routines and magical moments like Stan playing "The World is Waiting for the Sunrise" on a bedspring while he and Olly are waiting to be shot at dawn. A must-see for all fans of the eternally hapless duo.
Directed by A Edward Sutherland.
Released in 1939
a.k.a."Flying Aces"
TRIVIA: Oliver Hardy met his future wife, Virginia Lucille Jones, on the set. She was the script supervisor.
PERSONAL NOTE: The first time I saw this film the ending made me cry. I was too young to get the reincarnation joke.
